Trump fucked up the *American* renewable transition but he might have had the largest positive effect on the global transition of any president ever

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1

The absolute madness around this photo speaks volumes about how the modern conservative mind is broken. These kids have done everything asked—they're assimilated legal citizens, they succeeded in a meritocracy, they're celebrating American ideas. But it's not enough if bigotry has infected your soul

NIMBY rationalization cycle: - building more housing raises prices - building more housing doesn't lower prices - building more housing does lower prices but that's exactly why the market wont build more <- WE ARE HERE - prices first need to rise for the market to build more housing - return to top

Cars don't fit in FiDi, and they're not needed: "Almost all subway lines and the PATH trains from New Jersey converge on the neighborhood, and 78 percent of households in the City Council district don’t own a car, while 85 percent get to work on foot or on transit"

Planners have floated projects to curb motor vehicles from the Financial District's narrow roads for at least half a century, but a lack of city leadership and pushback from big businesses have stymied the dream for an area that continues to favor a minority of drivers.

Read this: www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...
Becoming a U.S. citizen takes years and involves immigrants acquiring a green card, extensive interviews, background checks, classes and a citizenship test. The naturalization ceremony is the final step to the process, where the oath of allegiance and a citizenship certificate are granted.
Immigrants approved to be naturalized went to Faneuil Hall Thursday - known as the country's cradle of liberty - for that long-awaited moment to pledge allegiance to the United States. But instead, as they lined up, some were told by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials that they couldn't proceed due to their countries of origin.

When Mayor-elect Mamdani takes office on January 1, he will control over 6,300 miles of streets throughout the five boroughs. Reducing car dependence is one of the best ways to reduce costs for New Yorkers. Owning a car costs nearly $9,000 annually, while taking transit costs just $1,500.

These hoodies are sewn using a double needle coverstitch for durability, but the underarm and side seams are sewn using a flatlock seam. This produces a smoother, flatter seam, removing the bump that can rub against the body. Paul at IG toofbush explains the flatlock seam below.

Reading Life After Cars. This culture shock of an US family relocating to Amsterdam will stick with me: After signing an apartment lease, the landlord gave keys to each member but their 6-year-old. "I'm sorry, but I can have another made for you." The parent replied, "A key for a 6-year-old?!?"

Chilling insight by @barbarafwalter.com: "Once citizens view their own government’s security forces as an occupying army, violence becomes inevitable. Trump’s team knows this… They’re trying to trigger the very unrest that would justify further crackdowns." via www.nytimes.com/2025/10/07/o...
Screenshot from a NYT article by Thomas Edsall, quoting Barbara Walter of UC-San Diego: "The quickest way to piss people off is to send soldiers into their neighborhoods especially when there’s no reason for them to be there. It’s inherently provocative, and Trump and his team understand this. Research by the political scientist Robert Pape shows that the single most powerful predictor of suicide terrorism is the presence of foreign troops on local soil. People hate, hate, hate that. They hate the humiliation, the powerlessness, the feeling of being occupied.

"Once citizens begin to view their own government’s security forces as an occupying army, violence becomes inevitable. Trump’s team knows this. In fact, that’s the point. They are not trying to restore order; they’re trying to trigger the very unrest that would justify further crackdowns. In the end, violence serves their ultimate end: They want to create the illusion of disorder so they can tighten control and stay in power indefinitely."
